Описание: Djokovic’s Wife Calls Naomi Osaka ‘Disrespectful’ Ahead of Rod Laver Arena ClashJelena Djokovic, the wife of tennis legend Novak, has launched a scathing attack on Naomi Osaka after the two-time Australian Open champion’s icy handshake exchange on Thursday night at the Australian Open.

The Japanese star progressed through to the third round with a 6-3, 4-6, 6-2 win over Romanian veteran Sorana Cirstea.

Naomi Osaka has been labelled “disrespectful” by the wife of tennis legend Novak Djokovic after her poor act of sportsmanship during her second round Aussie Open clash.For not knowing what fair play is, my friend,” Cirstea responded as they walked towards the umpire.You’re playing for so long, and you have no idea what fair play is.”

Cirstea wasn’t happy with some of Osaka’s shouts of “c’mon”, particularly in between a first and second serve while returning at one stage.

Osaka explained her side post-match.

“Apparently, a lot of c’mons that she was angry about, but whatever,” Osaka said.

“She’s a great player. I think this was her last Australian Open, so … I’m sorry she was mad about it.” She later apologised for any “disrespect” she caused.
